The Chemometrics for Environmental Omics group focuses on the development and application of chemometric (data analysis) and analytical tools for the study of problems of environmental interest.
Main research lines include the development of chemometric approaches to analyse datasets coming from diverse analytical platforms, the application of these chemometric data analysis methods to evaluate the metabolomic effects of chemical pollutants and global change stressors on environmentally relevant organisms, and the analysis of environmental data sets (i.e. monitoring studies on air, surface waters, sediments and soils) to retrieve information regarding the identification, resolution, and apportionment of pollution sources and their environmental impact.

Multiomics Profiling of Plants in Polluted Environments
101210853
Rice is a staple food for more than half of the world’s population, making it crucial to understand how pesticides affect it. Traditional single-omics methods offer only limited insights, whereas multi-omics approaches can uncover the complex interactions and mechanisms at play in rice. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the MPOPPE project will investigate the molecular effects of commonly used pesticides on rice by combining transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. The project will examine changes in gene expression, identify key proteins, and track metabolic shifts in rice exposed to pesticides, with a focus on stress responses and detoxification pathways. Its findings will provide vital information to develop integrated pest management strategies that improve rice yields and support sustainable farming practices.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 101210853.

Towards a SYstems-Based, holistic Environmental Risk Assessment of Chemicals (SYBERAC)
101135213
SYBERAC aims to better understand the terrestrial routes and patterns of exposure and the associated, potential toxicological and ecological impacts of chemical pollution (excluding industrial contamination) on terrestrial biodiversity, ecosystems, and ecosystem services. The SYBERAC vision is to deliver the underpinning science, methods and tools that can support a transition of terrestrial chemical risk assessment into a systems-based ERA (sb-ERA) designed to protect genetic and functional diversity and ecosystem services.
At the core of SYBERAC there is a collaborative knowledge-building process that integrates expertise and knowledge from relevant actors to improve understanding of how chemicals impact terrestrial ecosystems.
Funded by the European Union under Grant agreement ID: 101135213.

DESARROLLO DE METODOLOGIAS INTEGRADAS AL NUEVO ENFOQUE EN ESTUDIOS DE CALIDAD DEL AIRE: DESCIFRANDO LAS IMPLICACIONES EN LA TOXICIDAD PULMONAR Y CEREBRAL
PID2022-140392OB-I00
El proyecto DINAMIQS tiene como objetivo arrojar luz sobre la relación entre la composición química de la contaminación atmosférica y sus efectos sobre la salud pulmonar y cerebral humana. Para ello, utiliza una estrategia integrada que combina métodos avanzados de química analítica, nuevas metodologías de aproximación y quimiometría. Las muestras de material particulado para este proyecto se recogen en distintos entornos de aire ambiente exterior, desde zonas urbanas con tráfico intenso hasta áreas rurales de fondo.
